Introduction

In response to the increasing call for information literacy instruction in colleges and universities, and the need to address this from the viewpoint of diverse disciplines, the STS Information Literacy Committee (STS-IL) decided to examine, review, and collect relevant science resources that can be used as part of information literacy instruction to science students and faculty. STS-IL chose the wiki format in clear-eyed recognition that no single person or committee can definitively capture the rapidly shifting list of excellent resources, and that those who avail themselves of this particular resource will almost inevitably ask the question, "Why didn't they include X?" Now you can add X yourself for the enlightenment of your colleagues! We welcome your additions.
